Ingredients:

  • 1/2 lb bow ties
  • 1 large fennel bulb (about 1 lb), sliced as thin as possible
  • 1/4 cup olive oil
  • 2 tbsp lemon juice
  • 1/4 tsp salt
  • 1/4 lb thin- sliced prosciutto , cut into strips

Directions:

  1. In a large pot of boiling, salted water, cook the bow ties until just done, about 15 minutes. Drain. Rinse with cold water and drain thoroughly.
  2. In a large bowl, toss together the bow ties, fennel, oil, lemon juice, salt, and 1/4 teaspoon of the pepper. Add the prosciutto and toss again.
  3. To serve, mound the salad on plates. Top with strips of Parmesan shaved from the chunk of cheese with a vegetable peeler or with the grated Parmesan. Sprinkle the remaining 1/4 teaspoon pepper over the cheese.
  4. Test-Kitchen Tip: The easiest way to slice fennel is to cut off the stalks, cut the bulb in half from the top through the root end, lay each half flat-side down, and slice. For that matter, this is a good technique for almost any round fruit or vegetable.
  5. Wine Recommendation: Have some fun with this dish and try a bottle of the sparkling Italian wine Prosecco. It should go nicely with the fennel.
